>>41800975>Where did the whole "muh slow gameplay" bullshit come from anyway?It came from the slow movement speeds (surfing is the slowest in the series in Diamond/Pearl), areas that force the player to slow down due to the environment (literal shit in the Great Marsh/deep snow in the northern snow routes), the HP bar speed scaling to how many HP a Pokemon has (Blissey being the worst offender of having a slow HP bar speed), and the amount of areas with heavy HM usage. These aren't that big of a deal imo, but I can see why some people would get annoyed by some of these things.
